Culture is not optional (*cino) closed on the Huss School property in Three Rivers on Friday (June 12th).
Government is too big and too important to be left to the politicians. |

| Thank you all so much for your encouragement! We're back in Michigan again after two weeks on the road (http://www.eatwellfoodtour.com), and we're looking forward to diving into Huss work again. We'll let you know when there are opportunities to pitch in. Does anyone know someone who might be willing to donate lawn maintenance? |

| Thanks, Buck! We're actually really excited to be hosting one of our first "official" projects there this weekend. A film class from Grand Rapids is going to be learning production techniques by making a short film at the school--that's 13 students who will now have Three Rivers on their radar. We're looking forward to getting local folks more involved there as well this spring and summer. |

No problem KMV. I am happy to help.
Also if you ever need a volunteer to do classes or training on programming/development projects I would be interested in talking to you about donating some time and or experience.

That would be great, Buck! I'll keep that in mind for when the time is right.
If anyone is interested, Bruce Snook has posted a nice article with photos and audio about the film class that's working at Huss right now:

From our perspective, the Future Festival went so well. We tried not to have a lot of expectations beforehand, as it was our first event, but it certainly exceeded whatever we would have expected! :) We had about 350 people come through and brought in $1,500. We met several neighbors we hadn't met before, all of whom were very friendly and encouraging and many of whom had gone to Huss themselves. All of the logistics went smoothly, but I think it was also a good demonstration of the vibrant, multi-faceted, creative community events that can happen there. And it was so great to see the parking lot full once again!
If anyone here attended, please send me your feedback. I'd love to hear what you thought, suggestions for the future, etc. |

Great! I drove by and was very happy at what I saw, the parking lot nearly full in the late afternoon. My only regret was, I was not able to mke it. Next time I hope.

If anyone attends church or belongs to a community service club, what about "adopting" a room or project at Huss? This is a service mission in *our own community* and you can walk right up and SEE what your money, time, and work are doing!
!Hurray! to Rob and Kirstin for this bold undertaking and to the college students who have made this part of their education.

| Thank you for the encouragement, Amazon! We would love it if church and service clubs would get involved. Our interns created an amazing tour through the upstairs with miniatures, perspective paintings on the windows, etc. that's really worth seeing to start imagining the possibilities. We're going to leave that up for a bit, so if anyone has a group that wants a tour, just let me know. |
